PD dance and resistance training and I feel good! Very good! Have to keep moving. It really makes a difference (along with the cooler weather).

Watched two movies this afternoon/evening--Terribly Happy and Winter Kills. TH is a Danish film that is really quirky and odd. A Copenhagen police officer is sent to a remote village partly as punishment for pointing his gun at his wife when they are in an argument. He is sent there as a reprimand instead of being removed from the force. He soon discovers that the town and its inhabitants are strange, secretive, and generally wacky. He tries to fit in and do his job but nothing lets him find any stability. The plot and the people's actions get more and more odd and he is sucked into their way of doing things. The film is a mystery that unravels in an eerie conclusion.

Winter Kills is supposedly a comedy based on conspiracy theories surrounding the JFK assassination. The film is overweight with big name stars and crew but the overall impression of the film is that of reading a comic book. The more interesting aspect of this film is the saga around how it was finally completed. It didn't do well at the box office and has found some measure of acceptance with the publication of the DVD version and the telling of its production story.

No gait and balance class tomorrow! On my own! To the bone! Alone, alone! By the telephone! And the days go by, go by, go by!
